Recipe for Success

A Clear Objective
If you wish sustainable results it is imperative you know what and why you wish to accomplish something. – I am going to get myself in the best shape of my life releasing, 20lbs in 8 weeks.

At Marshall’s we help you set realistic objectives. We show you how to develop the willingness, motivation, for committing to those objectives, adopting proven strategies and methodologies matching your clear objective.

Research
Once your objectives are laid out you may begin to research information which will inform you of the best way to realize those objectives.

At Marshall’s we have and continue to research the best methods for quickly and safely reaching your objectives. We have taken all the guess work out of obtaining your objective. We will help you lay out your fool proof game plan.

Action
An objective and a game plan are of no use unless you are willing to take consistent decisive action. This means getting yourself to the gym, followed up by a sound nutritional plan. Take responsibility for your health by committing to your plan and act. At Marshall’s we help you set daily action steps to ensure you stay on track.
Action conquers fear.

Accountability
It is recommended you find one or several people you know who will support you on your road to victory. These friends will hold you accountable and encourage you. Surround yourself with them, avoiding the naysayers who will creep out of the woodwork. At Marshall’s we will hold you accountable for your results giving you tools to fend off the naysayers.

Structure
Action must be accompanied by structure to ensure no wasted effort maximizing your results. In the field of fitness structure means a well laid out program of content, number of programs, time allocation for each segment and total time required with a solid plan for further development before each segment is completed and beyond the completion of the total program of action. At Marshall's we provide you with the 4X6 program giving you six full months of structured programming and a plan of action beyond the 4X6 all tailored to your specific requirements.
